The Ultimate Test of Character


The ultimate test of character.
What do you do with your grocery cart after you are finished borrowing it from the store?
If you leave your grocery cart floating in the parking lot because it, "keeps someone a job." You might be a socialist.
If you leave your grocery cart floating in the parking lot and it blows into someone's car, you might be a vandal.
If you leave your grocery cart(that you borrowed) floating in the parking lot because it's, "the store's problem to retrieve it." You might be a thief.
If you leave your grocery cart floating in the parking lot because it's, "too far to walk." You might be lazy.
If you leave your grocery cart floating in the parking lot because you, "have kids in the car." You might be teaching them your lazy, thieving, socialistic, vandal ways.
Don't teach your kids to be lazy, thieving, socialistic, vandals. RETURN YOUR CART!

"Jesus, What Do We Suck At"?

What tribe are you from? There is a new trend among some Christians. What Christian tribe do you belong to, is the question being asked. What Christian tribe are you from? Tribe--community--gang. What's the difference? Not only do you have to identify your tribe, but you also need to learn how to live within this tribe. Living within a tribe is called a community. There are hundreds of books written on the subject of community. I've actually read many good ones. And some not-so-good ones. Why would someone write a book on how to live within a tribe/community? Is something the matter with us? Isn't living in a community as basic and instinctual as sleeping and eating? Sampler Look around, we have online communities, gay communities, gardening communities, homeschool communities, church communities, suburb communities, golf communities, exclusive communities, gated communities, ecovillage communities, intentional communities, Amish communities, hippie commun...

I Believe; Help My Unbelief!

When doubt comes knocking We say we believe. But believe what? We believe Jesus, yes. So why do we doubt then? If we doubt, does this make us unbelievers? Hypocrites? Some days it sure feels like it! Doesn't it? In the book of Mark, it is written that a man came up to Jesus and asked him to heal his son. The man specifically asked Jesus IF he can help him. Jesus responded, "' If you can’? All things are possible for one who believes ”. Jesus emphasized the "If you can", as if to say, "Of course I can, but WILL I, is the question". And, "Will you believe that I will"? The man replied, "I believe; help my unbelief"! Do you ever doubt? Do you ever not believe? Liar If you say you don't doubt as a "believer", then you are a liar. We all doubt, but does this unbelief disqualify us from being a child of God? James says, " 6 But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is l...

You're Not Invited to My Church

Upon arriving in Alabama I was told that everyone would ask me which team I chose and they would then invite me to their church. " Which team "? " What are my options "? I asked. Being the good Yankee that I am, I still have not chosen a team after eight years of residency in good old Alabama. As a matter of fact, I haven't even watched a football game. The invite "If you haven't found a church home, I'd like to invite you to ours" " Hmm, that's funny, you haven't even asked me if I am a believer" ? "Why would I want to come to your church" ? I got invited to dozens of churches the first year I was here. After the pleasant, " You ain't from around here ", I always received the gracious invite. Strangely, I rarely ever get asked where I am from anymore, and I never get invited to church. I'm not sure why I don't get asked where I'm from anymore, but while I was writing this bl...
